Vanessa Hudgens: 'I'm a classy faller'

High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens has reportedly joked that she is a "classy faller".

The actress, who played Gabriella Montez in the Disney series, told It's On With Alexa Chung that she is always injuring herself because she is naturally clumsy.

"I actually fell down a flight of stairs a few days ago into gravel. Now I have all these lovely wounds. So, it's awesome. I'm a classy faller though," Just Jared quotes her as saying.

The 20-year-old went on to admit that she keeps a taser next to her bed in the new home where she lives alone, explaining: "It makes me feel pretty badass. There's like a laser beam on it.

"It's really funny because when I first got it, I didn't have the taser part on it. So, I would bring it to my friend's house and I would be like, 'Are you guys ready?', and we'd turn the lights off and they'd all be afraid that I'm about to shoot them."

Hudgens can next be seen opposite Alyson Michalka in Bandslam, which is released on August 12.
